Alcide Kubernetes Security for the Edge

Security for the Entire Edge Stack. In One Edge Compute.

The user experience means everything today in our increasingly digital world. Many retailers, therefore, implement cloud strategies that connect every aspect of their businesses together to streamline performance and accessibility. As the demand to process and transmit data rises, companies are looking for innovative new ways to reduce the completion time of these tasks. Edge computing is one solution that improves the way data is sent and received. It offloads the workload to data centers on the edge of the cloud rather than near the center.

Kubernetes is one approach that many companies use to simplify their IT security and development for every facet of building and maintaining an application. Businesses that capitalize on edge computing can reduce network bandwidth requirements and overall consumption by using this decentralized approach.

Why Retailers Need a Kubernetes on the Edge Security Solution

While edge computing does result in significant performance increases, there are serious security implications to consider. Deploying containerized K8s clusters on the edge can expose your company to potential risks. In order to leverage Kubernetes at the edge to support how innovation is accelerated across all business fronts – from edge to the cloud and back, you need to maintain security and compliance among each deployment. This requires a dedicated Kubernetes security solution like Alcide to help you monitor, automate, and simplify the way your organization approaches K8s security at scale.
